Hilary Wardhaugh is an Australian photographer whose work explores the complex relationship between humanity and the environment and other more introspective projects viewed through a feminist lens. Her imagery frequently incorporates themes of irony and contradiction and offers a critical perspective on social and environmental issues. Wardhaugh’s larger collaborative projects like the #everydayclimatecrisis Visual Petition and the Loud and Luminous project (with co-Creator Mel Anderson) integrated elements of activism, using photography to inspire change.
The #everydayclimatecrisis Visual Petition, achieved global recognition. Her work has been collected by the National Library of Australia and she has exhibited widely within Australia.
